    Plum Perfect Inspiration

    Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, COLOR PALETTE, Purple, inspiration, invitations

    Purple seems to still be a pretty popular color for weddings, and I have to admit, I’m not much of a fan of purple. In some situations I like it, but for some reason it just isn’t a favorite of mine. However, since Spring is almost here and purple is a perfect Spring wedding color, here is some inspiration for a purple.

    Ravishing Red

    Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, COLOR PALETTE, I love..., Red, inspiration, invitations

    The color of love, red is bold and bright and can definitely stand on it’s own. It’s always been my favorite color (my office is painted red). I’m loving weddings that have a main color palette of, say, black and white with just little hints of red. Enjoy the inspiration for red weddings below.

    Parisian Elegance

    Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, inspiration, invitation clients, invitations

    Lindsay and Charles were engaged in Paris, and Lindsay wanted their wedding invitations to reflect the elegance that Paris exudes. Since I love all things French I was thrilled to be able to work with them on their invitations! Taking inspiration from Paris, the movie Gigi and keeping in mind that Charles didn’t want anything to femminine or fancy, I set to work designing for them. The end result was beautiful offset printed invitations on cotton paper. The invitation was framed and backed in plum colored cloth. For their reply card booklet, we used an image on the cover that Charles and Lindsay had taken from their apartment window (the famous view where Charles proposed to Lindsay as the Eiffel tower was sparkling with lights). The inside had meal choices with “respondez s’il vous plait”, of course. Calligraphy in plum on blush colored envelopes was done by Pretty Pen Jen.

    Modern Day Elegance

    Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, inspiration, invitation clients, invitations

    For their late September wedding, Kristi and Edward wanted an invitation that would be classic, elegant and formal. Their wedding was to take place in Malibu, California but Kristi wanted nothing to do with the beach on the invitations. Her dress, as you can see from our inspiration, was made of lace, so Kristi wanted to incorporate lace into the invitation somewhere. Her invitations were delivered in metallic gold envelopes. Guests opened the envelope to reveal the invitation, tied with an elegant gold bow and backed in cream colored lace. Offset printed in cream and dark navy, these invitations were the perfect opener to Kristi and Edward’s elegant wedding day.

    Inspiration Abounds in Fruit

    Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, eco friendly weddings, inspiration, invitations, wedding decor

    If you have read this blog for a while, you know by now that I’m a big fan or fruit. Eating it, as well as decorating with it. Besides being budget and eco friendly, fruit looks beautiful when paired with flowers, or it can stand on it’s own. It can be used to spruce up a cake, as a centerpiece or as decor around your reception or ceremony site. Below are some of my favorite fruit inspirations.

    Organic Chic Wedding Style

    Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, inspiration, invitations, wedding decor

    Have you ever noticed that a lot of weddings that take place at wineries have a certain look to them? It’s a soft, chic, organic style with muted colors and beautiful “fresh picked from the garden” florals. I simply love this look, especially for Spring weddings. I know we are in the dead of winter but everybody can use a little Spring in their lives, especially those Spring brides out there looking for inspiration. Below are some of my favorite inspirations for organic chic weddings.

    Vintage New York City

    Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, inspiration, invitation clients, invitations

    New York City, a city of historic landmarks, towering sky scrapers and lush Central Park, was the location for Kelly and Rob’s Autumn wedding. With the reception taking place at The American Museum of Natural History, Kelly and Rob wanted a simple wedding invitation with a little vintage flair.

    The Inspiration

    Board1

    The Invitation

    We designed a pocket-fold invitation, complete with custom wax seal. The reply card played up the reception venue location with a sketch of the museum, and “admit” and “no admittance” for the reply options. The hotel information and direction card was in the form of a book, with a vintage New York City map as the cover.

    For Kelly and Rob’s escort cards, we also played on the reception location by naming the tables after animals in the museum. Escort cards were made to resemble little brochures, all with a question and fun fact about the animal your table was.
